The full form of ERC clip is Elastic Rail Clip. These are self-tensioning clips used in railway fastening systems to secure rails to sleepers by exerting a clamping force. They are typically made from silicon-manganese spring steel and are manufactured by bending rods into a specific shape.

Within the fastening system,rail clip work together with rail insulators, base plates, and screw spikes to form a complete elastic rail fastening assembly. This structure effectively absorbs vibrations, reduces noise, and extends the service life of both rails and sleepers.
